Monks in Phra Ubosot, Phana

My previous post concerned the preparations for the special somphot ceremony at Wat Phra Lao which took place last weekend. Two years ago I filmed some video of the same ceremony. It included footage taken inside the Phra Ubosot. It is quite rare to see such footage,  I think,  and I felt quite privileged when the monks at Wat Phra Lao invited me to film inside.

I have posted a 4-minute clip to my YouTube Channel. You will hear chanting led by the monks in the ubosot and joined by the lay people outside.

 

Here are a few stills taken from the clip.

Hi Lawrence, I managed about 1.5 minutes then TOT kicked in an buffered everything so it was a bit useless.

Great idea though and something few foreigners have experienced I fancy?

I will try again when the Internet connection is flying-56k or so!!!!!
